 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

Oh Danny Boy, you never came on back
I waited here for you until my knees were slack
I'm older now than I ever hoped to be
You must still be a young man, and I've heard tale
You've done things you ain't proud of
They can take it to hell
I hope you know there's love at home for you
Oh Danny Boy, please come ye back again

When you were just a lad I told your mah you wouldn't be like me
'Cause I wouldn't let you indulge in all the crazy, wild and free
But you've discovered there's a hole inside you just can't seem to fill, that's how it is and Always been for our men
I saw it in your eyes one morning on the way to fish
I tried to tell you what you'd find was nothing but a cruel, cold bitch
You laughed a bit, turned on the radio and I just wanted to cry, but I drove on hoping Against all hope

Oh Danny Boy... Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy... Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy, please come ye back again

You turned eighteen and you were gone with nothing but a note
Said dad I'm sorry there's a girl and she wants to leave
I wished it so but I knew there was more to it than that
I got calls from the law more than I could count
Said we got your boy could you come down and pick him up tonight
I said he's a man he ain't a boy now, it's time he had to learn.....and these blue eyes Cried

Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy, please come ye back again

The years went by and I heard nothing, I grew old from the strain
Then one day like a thunderclap your call came
Said dad I need you can you drive down to the Louisiana coast
Down the highway like a wild man got there as fast I could
The door was open on your motel room and the light was dim
I fell apart when I saw my baby lifeless on the floor, and I held you once more

Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy...Oh Danny Boy
Oh Danny Boy, please come ye back again

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny Boy, Oh Danny Boy, I love you so
